Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2197: Chapter 2198: The Elder

As it gradually stabilized, the Spirit Pill finally took on a tangible form.

The perfectly rounded Spirit Pill emitted a pure white radiance, under which his entire Dantian seemed as bright as daylight.

Located in the center, though only the size of a fingertip, the aura it emitted was far superior to the previous fullness within the Dantian by several folds.

This fullness caused Lin Chen to breathe a sigh of relief, while also invigorating his spirit.

He didn’t rush to exit the cultivation state, instead, after the breakthrough, he continued to stabilize this realm.

After all, the breakthroughs in realms over the past few days had been somewhat too fast, and such rapid advancement is sometimes not a good thing. Like Sun Tianming, he has a foundation from his previous cultivation, so he is unafraid.

But Lin Chen is different; his realm leap was too vast, and he maintained this state of stabilizing the realm for a long time, to the extent that he didn’t even hear when the door was opened from outside.

It was Chen Jie who gently pushed open the door from outside and walked in.

She originally intended to discuss some matters with Lin Chen, but seeing Lin Chen in such a cultivation state, she could only shake her head and step back outside.

This state persisted for a full day and night, during which Lin Chen didn’t feel the passage of time.

However, outside, Chen Jie walked in frequently, and after several times seeing Lin Chen not awake, she could only patiently wait.

...

Finally, under a dusky sunset, accompanied by a gentle golden glow, Lin Chen awoke from his cultivation.

He opened his eyes, clarity filled his vision, even without opening the acupoint on his forehead, he could perceive the flow of Spiritual Energy around him, a sensation that was quite marvelous. He waved his hand, making a few gestures in front.

As his arm moved lightly, the Spiritual Energy in front seemed to split, dispersing in two currents from under his arm to the surroundings.

”Interesting.”

Lin Chen smiled, whispering softly, then he tightly clenched his fist, releasing an exceedingly strong force.

This force continuously gathered from his Dantian into his arm, a fullness he had never felt previously.

After a while, he loosened his fist, feeling excited, he walked out of the door.

”You really are something, you cultivate for days at a stretch.”

Outside remained only Chen Jie sitting, supporting her delicate chin, tapping the table lightly, her gaze filled with contemplative meaning towards the faraway dimming light.

But as Lin Chen appeared, her gaze instantly brightened, albeit her tone carried some impatience.

”In the midst of breakthrough, forgot the time... Where are they?”

Lin Chen glanced around the room, lightly coughing as he stroked his face.

”Brother Sun is also preparing to break into the Spirit Pill realm, Meng Shan and Lin sister had me take them to my father. Since you’ve decided to go to that place, you naturally can’t waste too much time, at least you must be prepared, so as not to have any worries later.”

Chen Jie explained, though Tao Yuyu had emerged from the shadows, their vigilance was still necessary. Only by properly settling the two with weaker strength could they cultivate without concern.

”Alright, but what else needs preparation?”

Lin Chen paused, having never been to this so-called competition, naturally unsure of what to prepare.

”Pills, Spirit Talismans, handy weapons, etc., etc...”

Chen Jie only briefly mentioned, not elaborating much. Although not familiar with the competition, she wasn’t a stranger to it either, knowing it often took several days to emerge. Thus, some essentials were obviously needed.

”Now that you’ve reached the Spirit Pill realm, you can go get the Storage Ring. Let’s go.”

Then Chen Jie glanced at Lin Chen, taking full note of his cultivation level, and without waiting for his response, she began heading outside.

Lin Chen smiled, long accustomed to Chen Jie’s brisk style, not minding at all.

He merely silently followed behind Chen Jie out.

Regarding that Storage Ring, Lin Chen was quite eager. Things placed somewhere were always inconvenient, but the Storage Ring was different; simply worn on the hand, it could store quite a lot of stuff, extremely convenient.

Guided by Chen Jie, a tall hall appeared before them.

The hall rose several feet high, with several golden characters inscribed on its plaque.

”Hall of Fame.”

”This is where Green Ripple Sect’s disciples who greatly contributed to the sect, or those who are prodigies among the younger generation, leave their names.”

Chen Jie explained, prompting Lin Chen to take a few more glances at the hall interior.

Within, there were many steles, faintly visible with portraits carved by Spiritual Energy upon them, below which lines of small text seemed to introduce the person’s life.

Yet, Chen Jie did not lead Lin Chen to walk inside, instead moving to a remote corner nearby.

There, an elder lay dormant on the table, drooling from the corner of his lips as he snored, moistening his beard.

”Hey, old man, wake up.”

Chen Jie walked up, rudely knocking on the wooden table.

The vibrations from the tabletop woke the elder slumbering there, he startled awake, rubbed his sleepy eyes, ready to be angry but upon seeing Chen Jie before him, he gradually calmed his mood.

”Isn’t this Chen Elder’s daughter? How come you have time to stop by here.”

The elder stood up, showing a welcoming enthusiasm.

”You lounge here sleeping daily, aren’t you afraid of being seen by others...” Chen Jie raised her eyebrows lightly.

”An old man like me isn’t sleeping, merely in deep thought.”

The elder smoothed his mustache, the saliva that had just dripped still wetly covering his hand, he awkwardly shook it off.

”You bringing your little boyfriend for me to see?”

Tuning out Chen Jie’s half-smiling teasing expression, the elder shifted his gaze to Lin Chen on the side, appraising Lin Chen up and down, then clicked his tongue, a gleam appearing in his eye, he said: ”Nice choice, a strong, robust young man, suiting you.”

”What nonsense are you talking about!”

Chen Jie’s face blushed immediately, she slapped the wooden table with a bang, startling the elder to shrink back.

”Not a word more, not a word more.”

Thus the elder spoke, then he curled his lips, stowing away the gossip expression earlier, asking: ”What brings you here?”

”He’s reached the Spirit Pill realm, here to claim his identification badge, and associated items.”

It seemed Chen Jie was long accustomed to the elder’s demeanor, she clenched her slender fist, barely restraining the urge to swing it out, then spoke.
